Hi, is it possible that the password field in question has been
triggered to visibly display the word instead of the asterisks?
Forgive me for not having a reproducible example handy, but I've seen
it couple times in the last few weeks. Because I can't remember an
exact example, it's possible it was even for something online. Decided
to offer it up anyway since I've seen it in action AND because it's
interesting Samuel's hearing asterisks while Raphael's hearing the
actual password..
